An apparatus for use in atmospheric pressure ionization includes a sample receiving chamber, a sample droplet source communicating with the sample receiving chamber, an outlet conduit, and a boundary. The outlet conduit defines a sampling orifice that communicates with the sample receiving chamber. The boundary is interposed between the sample receiving chamber and the sampling orifice and comprises an opening. The opening defines a first passage through which a drying gas is flowable into the sample receiving chamber in an elongated flow profile, and a second passage through which sample material is flowable from the sample receiving chamber toward the sampling orifice. The first passage is positioned in non-coaxial relation to the second passage. The first passage is configured to introduce the elongated flow profile of the drying gas into a pathway of droplets of the sample material flowing toward the second passage.
